Wasn't Ziggler injured?

Posted By: senorfro (Guest)  on April 07, 2009 at 12:47 AM

 
 
It turned out that Ziggler's reported broken collarbone was a false alarm.

This is BULLSHIT! I have tix to Backlash and I have NO desire for Batista to even be in the same building as me. Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll tear his bicep jogging again.

So. Many. Tag-matches.

Posted By: snm32 (Guest)  on April 07, 2009 at 01:00 AM

 
 
I can just see it now: Batista turns on Triple H and helps Orton win the title.

"Wasn't Ziggler injured?"

Maybe Dolph Ziggler's twin brother Zolph Ziggler replaced him

Gilbert Guerrero??

I can't wait for backlash...mostly cuz I'll be there

Does anyone else see a Batista turn against Triple H coming from a mile away?

Posted By: Highscore Kid (Guest)  on April 07, 2009 at 02:20 AM

 
 
Also, did any of you, my loyal fans, hear by any chance that I have a movie out? It's great fun for all family! And if you hurry, you can still catch it in theatres, chain-gangers!

PS. I am better than The Rock.

A Batista turn could really rejuvinate his character, although he has no place in The Legacy.

BUT

Big Dave turning heel would not only get the strap on Randall without making HHH look weak, it would also DEFINITELY mean the following PPV will give HHH the return win over Batista that he's had a hard-on for 4 years over

NO-ONE ESCAPES THE H!!!

Wrestlemania XXVI Main Event, HHH squashes Ultimate Warrior in 30 seconds.

Legacy & Randy Orton vs. HHH, Batista and Shane McMahon. Wow, it sounds like that main event sucks ass. I won't be ordering Backlash 2009 if they don't build up that main event properly and add a lil intrigue to it, because as it stands right now, I'm not buying it. Batista returning to WWE doesn't exactly set my world on fire.

You forgot PPS: I'll never insult your intelligence by using a ridiculous do-nothing move like "the people's elbow" as a finisher.

Shane turns heel... Book it.

I hope so, no body needs a heel turn as much as Batista.

hey jeremy,
rip up your tickets or donate to charity. don't go if you feel that strongly. You're a hypocritic parasite if you do go.
And fuck off.

Who in the blue hell is Gilbert Guerrero?

Posted By: 2 Stoned Corpio (Guest)  on April 07, 2009 at 10:25 AM

 
 
I love the lineup for Legacy (the wrestling channel not the group) And Backlash already looks like overkill. But what did you expect? Cena vs Edge has been done to death, and now there's another? zzzzzzzz. Vickie as the permanent GM? Well there goes RAW down the tubes. Batista returns only leads into yep, you got it! Another Batista vs Hunter matchup. Seen it! Been there! Done that!

I'm on the same boat. Shane will join legacy.

Nah Brad I can't talk I have the 5 knuckle shuffle and offically Rocks finishing move actually has an effect unlike that.

Hey Brad how is that Cena is better then Rock laughfest you tried last year going for you.

If I'm not mistaken, he's already in the hall of fame. Seems he was inducted in one of the early non-televised classes.

Ziggler's injury was a 1 day deal

Looks like senorfro needs to mind his own damn business.

Posted By: Captain_Snackpipe (Guest) on April 07, 2009 at 12:57 AM

What brought that on?


Posted By: senorfro (Guest)  on April 07, 2009 at 03:49 PM

 
 
I don't know about any of you but my WWE Classics On Demand channel is screwed up. They don't have the choices that are listed here, and its April 7th already. All I have is 3 Cyber Sunday matches... 1 Nitro ... and they don't even have the SHORTIES section on there anymore. I am cancelling my subscription if its not correct by tomorrow. No lie.

Speaking of minding your own business, please ask your mom to buzz off...I'm tired of her snacking on my pipe...
